Review - Dove Silky Nourishment Body Cream

.

Silky and soft skin is everyone’s dream but it becomes a difficult task to maintain the softness of skin in winters. Dove has come up with a brilliant formula to resolve the problems of dry skin especially in winters.

Dove’s Silky Nourishment Body Cream is the ultimate moisturising cream that leaves you with nourished and silky soft skin. It contains exclusive Deep-Care Complex with skin natural nutrients that comforts the dryness and gives you a more beautifully radiant soft skin.

The formula has Petrolatum, Paraffinum Liquidum, Glycerin, Stearic Acid, Glycol Stearate, Glyceryl Stearate, and rich essential oils, which gradually improve the condition of skin, by starting deep down moisturizing.

Our Verdict:

The Dove cream is oil free and its consistency is very much light in weight, means it does not feel heavy on skin. The consistency is neither too thick nor too thin. The cream is good for its deep absorbency quality. Once applied, the skin remains hydrated for approximately six to eight hours. It is an ideal product not only for winters but it also works wonderfully during summers.

For the maximum best results, use Dove cream on daily basis. The regular Dove skin care routine will leave you with a silky smooth skin. The mildly scented Dove cream is appropriate for all over body use.

Packaging:

The 300 ml white plastic container packaging is enough for a single person to use it for nearly two months. The tight lid packaging is not easy to carry in a hand bag, but as the result is enormously good, you can not leave it at your home. So, use a small makeup container to fill it with Dove cream and carry it with yourself where ever you are going.

Availability:

It is easily available every where and the price is very affordable.

Rating:

We recommend Dove’s Silky Nourishment Body Cream because of its good absorbency and non greasy formula.

Review - Oriflame Offers A Wide Range Of Lipsticks For Every Occasion

.

We all like to buy different lipsticks with distinct texture and pigmentation; the selection of shades are always as per our desire and requirement. However, it is really difficult to find all desired shades from the same makeup brand. Even top-notch brands fail to offer variety of shades, and frankly speaking this is a big turn off for all makeup lovers.

Oriflame, a fifty years old direct selling cosmetics company, is one of the most trusted cosmetic brands that offer a huge variety of quality products. 

Review - Oriflame's Pure Colour Nail Polishes

The brand has particularly introduced a wide range of high quality lipsticks in numerous hues and tones to satisfy their customers’ need. This is the reason, Oriflame has been appreciated by women all over the world.

Review - Oriflame's Milk & Honey Gold Nourishing Hand & Body Cream

Today, we will cover the detailed review (sorry readers, please read it as "long review") of two different Oriflame lipstick collections.

Our Verdict: 

We have used these Oriflame lipsticks for a couple of weeks before writing this review. So, now we can say that these lipsticks are rich in color with smooth creamy finish. They are really good when it comes to “care for lips hydration”. All lipsticks can glide over your lips very easily and do not need extra lip-gloss or lip balm. The packaging is lightweight and easy to carry in a small bag. Both the Pure Color and The One range has numerous shades, which will make you confuse in your color selection.

Now you can read the detailed review of the four different shades. 

Pure Colour Lipstick – Silver Pink

It is a combination of pinkish shade with a silver touch. It has a shiny and creamy effect that helps in moisturizing the lips. It is very easy to apply; it has “glides over the lips” tendency and gives you a desired look without using any lip-gloss. The Pure Color range has a 4-6 hours staying power. 

The bullet-shaped lipsticks are easy to carry in small clutch or handbag. The beautifully pigmented creamy lipsticks come in plastic packaging with a transparent cap. There is a variety of colors in this specific range and the most important factor is that they all are available in affordable price.

Pure Colour Lipstick – Tempting Brown

The bullet shaped Tempting brown from the Pure Color Lipstick range is the most beautiful shade. With two to three swipes you will get your desired darker shade. However, the single swipe gives a really tempting brownish shade to match any outfit. 

It has a brilliant satin finish;  there will be no need to apply any lip gloss. This lipstick gives a very smooth texture and perfectly moisturizes your lips. The staying power is low with only 2 hours.

The One 5-In-1 Colour Stylist Lipstick - Cranberry blush 

Cranberry blush of the One 5-In-1 Colour stylist lipstick is a beautiful rich shade with a strong creamy texture that provides good coverage. The presence of cocoa butter helps in hydration and moisturizes lips very well. 

The highly pigmented shade gives a perfect hue in one swipe. If you want a deeper dreamy look, go for multiple swipes. It glides over the lips very easily and gives a satin finish. 

The staying power is 5 to 6 hours. The 5-In-1 Colour Stylist Lipsticks are available in variety of beautiful shades.

The ONE Colour Unlimited Matte Lipstick - Coral Matte

The Coral Matte from ONE Colour Unlimited Matte Lipstick is another fine addition into your makeup box. It has a sleek packaging, perfect for carrying it in a handbag. The orangish shade slim lipstick has a promising coverage. Although it has a matte finish but it is smooth enough to glide over your lips. It helps in hydration just like a lip balm. The fruity smell lipstick stays for around 4 hours easily.

Availability:

All Oriflame cosmetics including the lipstick range is easily available on their official Website Oriflame.

It can be ordered through Oriflame’s authorized consultants in your area as well. 

Rating:

The Oriflame’s lipstick range is perfect for sensational and exciting shades. Our rating for these lovely lipsticks is 5/5 and we recommend it to all of you!

So, dear friends, do share your thoughts in comment section about the Oriflame Lipstick range.

Review - Fair & Lovely BB Foundation + Fairness Cream

.

Last week we came across a small Fair & Lovely stall in a shopping mall. The representative girls asked us to try a new product by the same brand. They showed us the Fair & Lovely BB cream. The price was so cheap that it tempted us badly and we instantly decided to buy it.

We used this BB cream for few days and today we will share our review about it. Let's have a look at the brand's claim.

The Brand Claims:

New fair & Lovely BB cream is an expert product that brings together foundation and advanced multi-vitamin fairness cream, for instant fair look, coverage of dark spots and blemishes. It evens skin tone and gives sun protection because of its SPF 15. It has a matte and non-oily feel.

Packaging:

The packaging is a small tidy tube with a white color cap. Due to its small size, it can be labelled as travel friendly. You can even carry it in your shoulder handbag without any problem. It doesn’t leak in my bag, so I can say that it is safe to carry it in your bag.

It contains 18 gm of Fair & Lovely BB foundation + fairness cream.

Our Verdict:

This BB cream gives natural look with non-oily effect. The texture is neither very thick nor thin, and due to this balanced consistency it gives a nice smooth look. The texture is awesome to hide skin blemishes and dark spots. The foundation + fairness BB cream provides sun protection because of the presence of sunscreens SPF 15. There is a specific strong smell or fragrance like some fruity thing with a touch of a rose.

The fair & Lovely BB cream has matte finish and upon applying with finger tips, it gives an even blended look without shine. The matte formula is not very favorable for dry skin tone as it is not helpful in moisturizing the dry skin. However, for normal to oily skin, it is a good combination BB cream.

There are no shade options available in this BB cream. The only one shade available is workable for medium complexion. Its shade looks extra whitish on dark skin types, while for fair ones; this nude shade BB cream is a little bit darker.

It is a product that can be suitable for women who love to have non-oily textured BB cream with strong fragrance. It will be highly suitable for them. But, for those women who like to have some extra moisturizing effect, will not like it to use it. 

However, for normal / combination skin, the non-greasy effect and long lasting moisturising effect can be very helpful in the winter weather.

Availability:

Fair & Lovely BB Cream is easily available in shopping malls.

Rating:

This is our first ever experience with any Fair & Lovely product. We can conclude our review with these words that some women would love to use this Fair & Lovely BB Cream while there will be some women who would be hesitant to use it because of its single shade with matte formula.

It can be said that it is tricky product with a complex results depending on user’s experience. For combination skin, Fair & Lovely BB cream is a nice option.

Our friend’s doctor told her that she can use Mustela products as they are made of natural ingredients and are mostly suitable for infants and mothers. The doctor also advised her to immediately stop the use in case of any reaction. But, the result was excellent as there was no reaction at all.

.

Photo: Oh, Lady Mania!

Makeup and cleansing milk are two things that usually go hand in hand. In other words, we cannot deny the importance of a good cleansing milk that helps in wiping out all the traces of the makeup.

We recently bought a new cleansing milk by EVELINE Cosmetics. It is a product of EU. So, today's review will be about EVELINE Cleansing Micellar Milk 3 in 1.

Let's see what this 7.04 oz bottle has to offer;

The Brand Claims:

Cleansing Micellar Milk 3 in 1 thanks to the use of CELLULAR MULTI – CLEANSING Technology perfectly removes makeup and ensures complex normalizing action. Visibly tightens dilated pores, balances sebum secretion and prevents unaesthetic skin shine. Safe even for contact lenses users.

Active Ingredients 360:

Photo: Oh, Lady Mania!

Satisfaction All Ready After The First Use;

Matt skin 97%

Deep cleansing 86%

Our Verdict:

We selected the combination to oily skin product as it is perfect for our skin type. Upon trying it, we found that it doesn't irritated skin and eyes, nor it gives any rashes. Its unique formulation wipes out the makeup deeply even from the pores as well as the surface debris.

It left skin moisturized without any extra shine or greasiness as it absorbed completely in to the skin. It cleans and soothes the T-zone area but didn't dry it too much. 

Skin around the eye area is pretty delicate and when this product was applied to remove eye-makeup, it worked amazingly. It didn't irritated the eyes, in fact, it removed all the eye makeup very gently. There was no need to rub it harshly. 

Photo: Oh, Lady Mania!

This cleansing milk has a normal consistency with a mild scent. Many people avoids Micellar formula due to its stickiness. However, we liked it because of its quick deep action for removing makeup plus it is not hard on skin. 

Application:

We used a small amount of the cleansing milk on to a cotton pad to clean face and eye makeup. Apply it in circular motion and wipe off with a soft tissue and rinse with tap water.

Hello Everyone, we hope all of you beauties are doing fine and enjoying winters. Although winter season is great to enjoy a lot of things such as hot soups, dry fruits and many other things.

To cope up the dry skin issue, me and my sister surveyed local shopping malls for some good moisturizing hand and body lotion. From the vast variety of lotions we finally selected ELMORE Soft Skin Hydrate Lotion in a 250 ml packaging.

Here is our review about this lotion:

It provided a long lasting moisturization to my skin. I especially love the silky soft touch it gave to my skin. The most important thing about  ELMORE Soft Skin Hydrate lotion is that I felt nothing greasy, it truly nourishes the skin all day long still without a sign of any greasiness.
